Get your free cash

PokerStars is giving you the chance to win big without a deposit this week, but to claim your prize you have to complete "The Ultimate Challenge". 

If you manage to do so you'll earn a cash reward of at least $10, but it could be as much as $1,000.

Be warned though, these challenges make the January Daily Challenges look as easy as getting under Phil Hellmuth's skin!

How do I claim my cash reward?

Just follow these simple steps:

  • Opt-in using the star code "ULTIMATE" before January 23 at 23:59 ET
  • Once the code is processed, you'll see a pop-up in the client explaining your challenge and how many VPPs you need to generate to earn your cash reward
  • Track your progress in the Cashier under "My Bonus Status" in the PokerStars desktop client, you'll have 30 days to complete your challenge
  • Each player will be given a cash reward of $10 up to $1,000 depending on their best performing month collecting VPPs in 2014 (once their challenge is complete)

$1m January Challenges

There's still time to win big this month by completing - in comparison to the above at least - simple Daily Challenges at PokerStars.

Every time you complete one of three Daily Challenges you'll be awarded with a ticket to a $10,000 All-in Shootout.

Plus, if you complete 10 Daily Challenges throughout the whole month, you'll net a ticket to a massive $100,000 All-in Shootout running on February 02.
